and control of input sensitivity. A two-position switch turns on/off 12V AC antenna power for use with powered antennas or accessories.

The ATW-T210a UniPak® body-pack transmitter features a latching cover to protect the internal controls from being accidently activated and a recessed 4-pin HRS-type locking input connector to increase the life of the microphone cable. Inputs are available on the transmitter for low impedance microphone, and high impedance musical instrument or line input. The transmitter supplies DC bias voltage to power condenser microphones. A straightforward recessed power/mute switch allows for operation without the need to look at the transmitter. A red LED power/ battery indicator glows when the transmitter is turned on and the batteries are in operating condition. An RF power select switch offers high and low settings.

The ATW-T220a handheld transmitter uses a PRO 41-type dynamic unidirectional capsule to maintain sonic consistency with wired counterparts. Adjustable trim control helps match the microphone to the audio

Description

The 2000 Series frequency-agile True Diversity UHF wireless systems deliver professional audio and RF performance unheard of in its class. Straightforward setup, automatic scanning, and other advanced wireless features brings its performance to a standard that provides the audio quality and reliability necessary for the quality sound systems of today.

The AT W-R2100b receiver features automatic frequency scanning that eliminates the need for searching for clear channels by automatically selecting the most appropriate frequency for the area in which the wireless is operating. A pre-coordinated integral channel plan allows for simultaneous operation of any of the ten channels in a given location. The exibility in programming both the receiver and transmitters eliminates confusing frequency groups and other frequency coordination problems. Advanced Tone Lock™ adjustable squelch system ghts interference. Features not often found in other receivers include balanced XLR-type and unbalanced 1/4" output connections, ground-lift switch on XLR-type output, metal receiver construction, detachable receiver antennas, eld replaceable body-pack transmitter antenna, high-pass lter, adjustable squelch,

source and an ergonomically designed handle and end-mounted recessed controls help maintain a clean uncluttered appearance. A rugged steel head case protects the capsule while providing relief from wind-induced noise. Both transmitters function with standard readily available AA alkaline batteries providing over 8 hours of operation and feature an easy-to-congure channel selection switch. An RF power select switch offers high and low settings.

Architect’s and Engineer’s Specications

The frequency-agile FM wireless microphone system shall consist of a receiver and appropriate transmitter. Offered in two UHF bands, 656.125–

678.500 and 487.125 – 506.500 MHz, the wireless system shall be capable of operating on any of 10 PLL-synthesized channels. Simultaneous operation of any of the ten channels shall be possible without the need for frequency groups or presets.

The frequency-agile FM wireless receiver shall be all-metal and shall provide an automatic scanning function to select appropriate local usable channels for proper wireless system operation. Functions of the receiver shall be controlled by soft-touch controls on the receiver front panel. It shall be a True Diversity receiver with two independent internal receiver sections, automatically selecting the highest quality signal for the receiver’s output. The system will be equipped with a Tone Lock™ digital identication system to ensure that only the desired wireless microphone transmitter allows the receiver to be un-muted. Visual indication of the channel selected shall be provided on the front panel. The receiver shall continuously monitor and display the RF signal strength and the selection of internal dual (True Diversity) receiver sections along with the audio modulation level of the received signal. A front panel power switch shall be provided along with illuminated display indicating receiver is active. A two-position switch shall turn on/off the12V AC antenna power for use with powered antennas or accessories.

The receiver shall have a rear panel selector to lift the ground connection from pin 1 of the XLR-type output connector to prevent ground loops. Both XLR-type and 1/4" audio output connections shall be provided. Output gain and squelch level adjustments shall be provided on the rear panel of the receiver. The receiver shall be able to be powered by 120V AC 60 Hz or 12–18V DC at 500 mA. The receiver as supplied can be rack-mounted singly or in pairs in a single rack space. The receiver’s design shall provide totally silent audio output mute when the wireless transmitter is turned off or signal is lost. The wireless receiver and the supplied metal rack-mounting brackets shall be industrial black.

The frequency-agile FM wireless body-pack transmitter shall be part of a wireless system operating in the UHF bands of 656.125– 678.500 or

487.125 – 506.500 MHz. The body-pack transmitter shall have inputs for microphone and line level inputs. It shall provide DC voltage to power microphones requiring DC bias. The body-pack transmitter shall have a
